(B) $1$. The fish sees the direct image of the bulb through refraction at the water surface. The real distance of the bulb from the surface is $50 \, cm$. Due to refraction,the apparent height of the bulb from the surface is $h' = \mu_w 	imes 50 = (4/3) 	imes 50 = 200/3 \, cm$. The fish is at a depth of $30 \, cm$ from the surface. So,the apparent distance of the bulb from the fish is $d_1 = 30 + 200/3 = 290/3 \, cm$.$2$. The fish also sees the image of the bulb formed by the reflecting bottom surface. The bulb is $50 \, cm$ above the water surface and the water is $60 \, cm$ deep. The total distance of the bulb from the bottom is $50 + 60 = 110 \, cm$. The mirror forms an image at a distance of $110 \, cm$ below the bottom surface. The total distance of this image from the water surface is $60 + 110 = 170 \, cm$. The apparent distance of this image from the surface is $h'' = \mu_w 	imes 170 = (4/3) 	imes 170 = 680/3 \, cm$. Since the fish is $30 \, cm$ below the surface,the apparent distance of this image from the fish is $d_2 = 30 + 680/3 = 770/3 \, cm$.$3$. The distance between the two images seen by the fish is $d_2 - d_1 = 770/3 - 290/3 = 480/3 = 160 \, cm$. Wait,re-evaluating: The fish sees the bulb directly at $d_1 = 30 + (4/3) 	imes 50 = 290/3 \, cm$. The fish sees the reflected image at $d_2 = (60 - 30) + 60 + (4/3) 	imes 50 = 30 + 60 + 200/3 = 90 + 200/3 = 470/3 \, cm$. The distance between them is $470/3 - 290/3 = 180/3 = 60 \, cm$. Let's re-read: The image is formed by the bottom mirror. The object distance from the mirror is $50 + 60 = 110 \, cm$. The image is $110 \, cm$ below the bottom. Total depth from surface is $60 + 110 = 170 \, cm$. Apparent depth from surface is $(4/3) 	imes 170 = 680/3 \, cm$. Distance from fish = $680/3 + (60 - 30) = 680/3 + 30 = 770/3 \, cm$. The first image is at $30 + (4/3) 	imes 50 = 290/3 \, cm$. The difference is $770/3 - 290/3 = 480/3 = 160 \, cm$. Given the options,let's check the sum: $770/3 + 290/3 = 1060/3$. None match. Re-calculating: The fish sees the bulb at $30 + (4/3) 	imes 50 = 290/3$. The fish sees the image in the mirror. The mirror is at $60 \, cm$ depth. The bulb is $50 \, cm$ above. Total distance to mirror = $110 \, cm$. Image is $110 \, cm$ below mirror. Total distance from surface = $60 + 110 = 170 \, cm$. Apparent distance from surface = $(4/3) 	imes 170 = 680/3 \, cm$. Distance from fish = $680/3 + 30 = 770/3 \, cm$. The distance between the two images is $770/3 - 290/3 = 480/3 = 160 \, cm$. If the question asks for the sum of distances,it is $770/3 + 290/3 = 1060/3$. If the question implies the distance of the images from the fish,and the fish is between them,the distance is $290/3 + 470/3 = 760/3 \, cm$.
